From our recent recording sessions, impressions from two different cameras. The first is from the T2i. I took the image through a double glazed soundproofing window with the lens fully zoomed. The reflections off the window glass were very cooperative, as were the musicians.

Lens: Canon EF-S 15-85mm at 85mm.
Settings: 1/8 second at f/5.6, ISO 800.

This image of the tuba was taken with the G11. The G11’s articulating LCD screen makes high and, as in this case, low angle framing super easy. For dramatic effect, in post-production I added a bit of vignetting in Nik Silver Efex then overlayed the black and white layer with the original using the layer palette’s “Color” menu selection.

Settings: 6.1mm, 1/60 second at f/2.8, ISO 400.
